[comp.windows.x] Colormap control

A Question on Colormap control - 

I have a client which creates multiple toplevel shell windows.  In each
is a workspace widget (from the HP widget set) containing an image
with a private colormap.  The image in the first toplevel shell displays
in the correct colors.  The image in the second toplevel shell displays
incorrectly, apparently with the color map of the first.  When the
images are displayed by different clients, the colormap switching happens
as you'd expect.

The display hardware is a SUN SPARCstation IPC (8 bit color) using the
PseudoColor visual.

I do not receive postings from this mailing list, please respond directly
to me.
